Pornography is strictly illegal in Indonesia, which makes what appeared on the official Twitter account of the country's Foreign Ministry account at around 7 pm yesterday all the more shocking.
Around that time, two tweets featuring pornographic pictures appeared, seven minutes apart, were sent out by the official government account. The first was a photo of a naked woman with an Arabic caption, while the second obscene photo featured a Japanese caption.
The photos were taken down very soon after and the account then tweeted out an apology blaming the incident on "irresponsible spammers."
